Droney, Davidson top Charlotte 87-78 in overtime

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Tom Droney scored 21 points and knocked down four free throws in the last 21 seconds of overtime to lead Davidson past Charlotte 87-78 Wednesday night.

Davidson (3-5) opened the extra session with a 7-0 run, sparked by a conventional three-point play by Jordan Barham with 3:31 to play. Denzel Ingram twice pulled Charlotte (6-2) within five in the last 1:11 of overtime, but Droney hit a layup and was perfect from the line in the game's waning seconds as the 49ers were forced to foul.

Charlotte's Willie Clayton, who finished with 16 points and 12 rebounds, hit a pair of free throws with 44 seconds left in regulation to tie the game at 74.
